What is linking Ksp to molar solubility?Show answer
The molar solubility is the number of moles of the salt that dissolve per litre to give a saturated solution. You can convert between and solubility using the stoichiometry of the dissolving equation. If the molar solubility of is , then and , so .
What is predicting precipitation with Q?Show answer
When two solutions are mixed, you decide whether a precipitate forms by calculating the ionic product (the same form as but using the actual mixed concentrations) and comparing it with .
